sorry guys, don't really have the time to dig in sydney at the moment (hell, i spent too much time down there already!)
but if you've got some transport i've got an ideal site in north ryde - eden park drive - just in front of where I work is a vacant lot (awaiting development so probably won't be around forever but heaps of potential), there's loads of dirt there to work with already and a gentle slope to the block. worth a look i reckon. i've even thought of talking to the land owners about building a legit 4X track there. let me know what you think

Hi digger,

North Ryde is a central kind of area (only 20 mins drive for me);

If we can get land owners permission I say hell yeah;

And then we would know how long the track can stay there.........

I have a basic (secret) track worked out in Penno, just needs finishing touchs..........or expansion!!

tamborine bay is the bushy area inbetween longueville and riverview collage. you have ridden on it 4 sure. it runs from river road to the bay where the rock pool is. its a pretty cool area of heaps of drops ranging from 2 to ones up to 15 foot.

as 4 how i know you. you have a dj in your front yard so i kinda guessed.

hey i really dont want to put it in a national park. cause the rangers are already touch about mountain bikers in the park (due to erosion) and if we even dig in that area they could ban mtbing in that area. (it would be hard to enforce but it still would be a bitch). but if you have a good spot tell us where it is on the map!!!!!!!

for all concered about where tamborine bay is it is inbetween longueville and riverview. look at your UBD's. you cant miss it!

Sydneys newest skate park is being built on Bondi beach, should be done in another month or 2.

And if anyone needs locations or directions, www.whereis.com.au is great for finding places.

theres been talk of developing the site. if it isn't the case and development is a few years away thats great but ive got a feeling its not to far off.

whats you definition of awesome. last time i went there it smelt and the jumps where small humps. if its improved great, but there is an issue with to many gromets knowing where those jumps are. and its in clear view from the road. i wouldn't take long for them to get busted again.

Kammy
25-08-2004, 12:13 PM
yeah thats the only problem with the jumps clearly viewable from the road, but they have come along way and are getting better everday the biggest gap at the moment is 7.5 ft

Samuel Samuel Samuel.............. FOR GODS SAKE!! LEARN TO SPELL!! I DIDN'T CATCH WHAT YOU SAID!!
anyway, the jumps in castle cove need to be cleared out which mens killing all the jumps and then build from scratch when the council cuts down the dead trees, caz i reckon you can only fit about 5 jumps at most, and for gods sake, stop intruding in this convo, castlecove isnt near lane cove, this is for lane cove!! get your own convo
